-LRB- Mashable -RRB- -- FaceMash.com , the Facebook prototype Mark Zuckerberg built in his Harvard dorm room one October night in 2003 , is now up for auction on Flippa -- or at least the URL is .

The domain once housed a Harvard version of Hot or Not , which placed photos of various university women next to one another and asked visitors to select which one was more attractive .

FaceMash reportedly attracted 450 visitors and generated 22,000 page views in its first evening ; it was pulled down by Harvard several days later .

Now , the site attracts approximately 600 visitors per month , the auctioneer claims , though since the release of the movie `` The Social Network , '' which mentions FaceMash , the site has received more than 1,000 hits per day .

The domain is currently listed for $ 8,000 and , though it appears to be legit , has attracted few bids . That 's not terribly surprising , given the kind of hassle any business built on the site is likely to attract from Facebook 's lawyers .

Tell us : What would you host at FaceMash.com ?
